Default B16a automatic????

I had an offer for a JDM B16a engine. The only thing that was strange to me was that the guy said it was automatic. I thought all Si engines were manual. He said they made an automatic in Japan. Just wondering if any one else knows if it is true or not because i never heard of it.

JDM auto B16As have weaker cams than their MT counterparts. As for the USDM auto GSRs, the AT was an option, so they cost more(new, anyway) than the MT GSRs did.
